The present disclosure provides an improved production method for optical elements. In this case, it is desirable to achieve high contour accuracy and/or surface quality for optical elements or lenses or headlight lens. In addition, it is desirable to reduce the costs of a production process for objective lenses and/or headlights, microprojectors or vehicle headlights.

The present disclosure provides a suitable method for producing a headlight lens for a vehicle headlight, for example for a motor-vehicle headlight, wherein the headlight lens comprises an integral body made of glass, wherein the integral body comprises at least one light tunnel and one light-passage section having at least one optically active light exit surface, wherein the light tunnel comprises at least one light entry surface and, with a bend, transitions into the light-passage section in order to image the bend as a bright-dark-boundary by means of light directed into the light entry surface.

The optical element holder according to the present disclosure is an optical element holder for holding an optical element, wherein the optical element holder is formed from an optical element holder resin compound, the optical element holder resin compound contains a thermoplastic resin as a main component, a melting curve obtained by differential scanning calorimetry analysis of the optical element holder resin compound at a temperature increase rate of 10° C./min has two peaks in a range of not lower than 160° C. and not higher than 230° C. and a range of not lower than 260° C. and not higher than 320° C., and a ratio of a melting heat quantity in the range of not lower than 160° C. and not higher than 230° C. to a total melting heat quantity is not less than 20% and not greater than 80%.

A mold includes a lower mold core and an upper mold core. The lower mold core has a first outside surface and a first molding surface including a first molding portion and a first supporting portion surrounding the molding portion. The upper mold core has a second molding surface opposite to the first molding surface and encloses a molding cavity with the first molding surface. The lower mold core includes a first gas inlet on the first outside surface, a first gas outlet on the first supporting portion, and a first gas channel in the lower mold core, the first gas channel connecting the first gas inlet and the first gas outlet. Gas flow out from the first gas outlet to separate the glass product from the lower mold core before the glass product is completely cooled down, which can avoid many adverse effects during the glass product process.

A mold includes a mold component, a plurality of ejector pins and a stop block. The mold component has a molding surface for forming a glass product and a bottom surface disposed opposite to the molding surface. The mold component defines a plurality of passing through holes through the molding surface and the bottom surface. Each ejector pin passes movably through one corresponding through hole and is configured to separate the glass product from the mold component. The stop block for forming a stop on the ejector pins disposed on one side of the bottom surface. Separates the glass product from the mold component before the glass product is completely cooled down by using the combination of the ejector pins together with the stop block, which can make the cooling of the glass product more uniform.
